Plan Melbourne
Plan Melbourne – Melbourne’s metropolitan planning strategy – will guide the growth of our city through to 2050. It sets the strategy for supporting jobs, housing and transport, while building on Melbourne's legacy of distinctiveness, liveability and sustainability. Plan Melbourne also provides policies and strategies to protect our waterways.
Healthy Waterways Strategy
The Healthy Waterways Strategy is a shared strategy across Melbourne Water, state and local government, water corporations and the community providing strategic direction towards a regional vision for the health of rivers, estuaries and wetlands in the Port Phillip and Westernport region.
Closely linked are a range of Co-Designed Catchment Programs - including for the Yarra and Maribyrnong catchments – which support the region-wide Strategy by providing a flexible framework for managing waterways across Melbourne’s main catchments.
